Hello! As all of you know there's been a recent migration of new users to places like this (me included). I'm thrilled about learning how to use these site and others alike, but I'm having trouble understading how it works. Is there a dumb down video about how the sites on the fediverse work and interact with each other? like mastodon, pixelfed, lemmy, etc. Sorry if there's an obvious answer, really knew in these. Ty!

The Youtuber TheLinuxExperiment did a Quick start guide to the fediverse video 6months ago, focusing on Mastodon Peertube and Pixelfed. I think Lemmy was only briefly mentioned though
